First delivered to UTA as F-BNRA in 1966 and leased to Air Afrique as TU-TXQ for three months in late 1976, in December 1977 this Caravelle joined the French AF and served ET 1/60 GLAM and ET 3/60 using callsign F-RAFH. In 1988 it was sold to LAS - Lineas Aereas Suramericanas as HK-3932X "NAPOLEON B". While operating on a cargo flight from Bogotá to Mitú on 31st January 2001, it crash landed five miles short of El Yopal airport in Colombia after attempting an emergency landing with gear retracted.
